Other Thoughts: I read reviews on this unit before I bought it and the "pros" had many negative things to say...but I don't get it. There's absolutely nothing wrong with this product. Okay, so the voltage regulation on the 5V/3.3V rails are not as tight as other brands...it's the 12V rail I'm concerned with and it's exceptionally tight. And who cares if the Supernova software isn't 99.999% accurate. I don't need 5-9's accuracy. What I do need is an easy way to measure input/output power, temps, and control over the fan profile. How many times I've wondered how much wattage my computer is drawing with no good/safe way to figure it out. The Supernova software is excellent.

Thus far I've put a peak load of 1372W on this unit with an average of around 1250-1300W with all four 780ti's loaded. After many 6+ hour gaming sessions the unit does get warm, but not excessively so.

Another complaint from the "pros" is the fan noise. I don't even hear the fan and I have it set to performance profile. There may be some, but I also have some case fans and I can't hear the PS over the case fans....hardly the "obscenely loud" review one site gave it.

In closing, this is a great product at a good value if you want/need the complete package. The sleeved cables are worth $100 by themselves (if that's your thing), and the Supernova software is a great tool. At the time of this review the unit is in stock, but I've heard it is being discontinued. However, don't let that bother you, this is a quality product and EVGA support is excellent.

Pros: The PSU overall is a fantastic piece of work. Quiet and so far, great performance. I'm SLI'ing two 780ti's with an OC @4.4ghz 4960x and everything has been running smoother than butter.

Cons: None so far

Other Thoughts: I have read in other reviews that this PSU was not all that it intended on being, but seeing that this has 9 solid reviews on newegg, and good reviews on a-mazon, I decided to take a chance because first of all: I love EVGA. second: this thing is a beast. Although, I have no idea why this product has been discontinued. I have been searching everywhere for an answer. I don't want assume it had too many problems and they decided to take it off the market. Hopefully, it's because they are making an even better one :)

Pros: Rated at 80PLUS GOLD, high amperage on independent rails, decent warranty term in relation to other brands.

Cons: PSU1, Dead on 1st boot. RMA'd, PSU1a failed after about a month, and likely took the main board with it on its way out due to its own USB connection. PSU1b, worked until the SR-2 finished dying within a week of its arrival. Even purchased another NEX1500 to test with and tried swapping cables (since RMA's do not include replacements for troubleshooting).

3 units within 60 days is Not a reliable PSU. It's no wonder they offer a 5-10 year warranty...

Other Thoughts: While eVGA may once have been the leader in both product reliability and service response, it is sad to say that this is no longer the case. Their own forums are ripe with failure after failure, and eVGA is doing nothing more than reading from play-books for support and dragging their heels on service turn around.

Other Thoughts: I tried several times, several different cards and several different slots on my mobo but to my surprise, the graphics cards were failing to be recognized. I contacted EVGA tech support and they were super helpful. They even gave me the advice I needed to make the graphics cards work properly with the mobo. None of those items other than the PSU were their products. I will purchase EVGA again.

Cons: -Labeling of modular cables is really pretty strange. The numbers on the modular interface are meaningless. It doesn't correspond to rails or anything relevant.-Unit runs warm at high loads causing some fan noise.-Output voltage isn't as clean as some of the competitors in this price range.-Unless I'm missed it, there are no 4-pin CPU power connectors, only 8-pin EPS connectors.-PCIe cables are red.

Other Thoughts: I was reluctant to buy this unit seeing as most of the professional reviews were very critical of it. I decided to take a chance anyway because it seemed to be the best feature set in the price range. I was unable to find another PSU that offered individually sleeved cabling, fully modular setup, software monitoring, and such a high power output at 50C. This unit is far better than I had expected.

The software monitoring was what sold me on this unit. Yes, it's not very accurate, but it does work EVERY time I open it. I had a terrible time with the software monitoring on the competitor's "Link" system. When you are building a system that can actually draw 1500 watts, it's nice to have the software to keep an eye on things to prevent accidentally tripping breakers.

Also, the individually sleeved cabling is absolutely fantastic on this unit. The cables are sleeved all the way to the connectors, so there is no visible heat shrink. The cables are also flexible and so easy to work with that cable management is actually a pleasure.

My complaints about this unit are pretty minor and are covered above. I really would liked to have seen a 4+4pin CPU power connector instead of the 2 8pin EPS connectors. Also the red PCIe cables really don't fit with my black and white color scheme. I wish EVGA offered alternate coloring for these.

As I mentioned above I am running an x79 system with 4-way SLI GTX Titan's. Even after several months of hard use (I'm either gaming or folding) it hasn't skipped a beat. I would not hesitate to buy this unit again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a feature-packed PSU.

Pros: OH MY ... , ALL THE POWER YOU WILL EVER NEED AND THEN ALOT MORE ON RESERVE, SOLID BUILD QUALITY AND THE CABLES VERY IMPRESSIVE, WORTH EVERY PENNY, MY KINGWIN LASER 1220 DIED, PEICE OF ...., NO HELP FROM THEM FOR WARRENTY REPLACEMENT, THEY DONT GIVE A RATS ... ABOUT THERE PRODUCTS AS LONG AS THEY HAVE YOUR MONEY ! EVGA I HOPE YOU TREAT YOUR CUSTOMERS ALOT BETTER THAN KINGWIN !

Cons: ARE YOU KIDDING ME, NOT A CHANCE , OK NO PRETTY BLUE LIGHT IF I HAD TO COMPLAIN !

Other Thoughts: WOW I "AM REALLY IMPRESSED GOOD FOR YOU EVGA , EVERY LOKK OUT THERE A NEW SHERIFF IN TOWN AND HIS NAME EVGA

Pros: Looks great in my tower for starters! High power and so far no issues running it. Powers my FX 9590, Asus R9 290x (single card for now untill i can go crossfire). HD SSD Samsung Evo 840 500gig.

See how it holds up, looks and feels like a quality product. All the cables are indiviualy protected. comes with 4 cable straps. First PSU that i have bough that comes in a protective bag + double boxed. Easy to read instructions. Had no issues to getting my new build up and running. Being able to O.C to 1650W!!!!

Pros: All the power you need! This power supply has been working perfect for 3 months now,powers my 3 way sli and everthing else in my pc! WOW!! Don't buy a cheep power supply that can short out and fry your montherboard,thats what happen to me.Buy the EVGA SuperNova !!

Other Thoughts: Wish I knew EVGA had power supplies sooner......My previous 1200W from (C..... company), although cheaper, burnt out one of my GTX680's.

**All I can say is that you can not skimp on your power supply......It is the ENGINE of your system that powers everything critical!Especially when you spend thousands of dollars on Video cards, CPU, memory and motherboard, dont risk damaging all those parts that are power critical......just to save $50-$100...... I did and it cost me an additional $500. **Protect your Investment made on the rest of the components in your rig.** Power it with as much as you can.
